Aviator's Guide to Navigation

Donald J.Clausing's Aviator's Guide to Navigation has been the aviator's navigation bible for ten years. Here, in a thoroughly revised, fully illustrated new edition, is all the information you will need to be an expert navigator-- or if you are a seasoned pilot, to keep abreast of all the changes in modern navigation systems. This book explains the many systems of air navigation, from the basics of dead reckoning and pilotage to the most advanced "glass cockpit" EFIS system. Navigation practices have changed tremendously in the past five years: some systems have disappeared, some are less important, and some are much more important. Aviators Guide covers them all, clearly enough for the advanced student pilot, and with enough depth for the professional.
